Introduction to the HighScore Software

HighScore is an analysis software for X-ray powder diffraction experiments. It covers a wide range of analysis methods, from qualitative phase identification to profile fits and phase (Rietveld) fits for quantitative determinations, from graphical comparisons to the solution of inorganic crystal structures, from unit cell determinations to statistical evaluations like clustering, PLSR and t-SNE.

This live introduction video deals extensively with the graphical user interface of HighScore, discussing all views, panes and lists, the menu bar and all toolbars. It explains their customization and personalization. Additionally the HighScore document and its features are discussed, automatic treatments, editing, zooming and pointer modes are treated. Finally the concept of parameter sets and user batches are shown.

HighScore Plus Tutorial – Phase Identification X-ray Diffraction – Long Version

In this video, I will both show and tell you how to perform phase identification using HighScore Plus. This is the longer, more detailed version of the video. If you only want the basic steps of phase identification without as much explanation, feel free to switch to the short version (the link is below).
